Reminder: John McCain is still a right-winger

Every time I see progressive-minded people praising John McCain on social media or in editorial pages I want to vomit. Yes, he's not as bad as Trump. So what? If that's the bar we're using you could argue Hitler's passing was lamentable.

We need to keep our eyes on the ball, here. The right wing is the enemy who wants a society where only white cis males have any rights. They're not an enemy you can reason with. They've got to be defeated. When you're in a war you grieve for the enemies leaders. Time for the left to show some cajones.

Liberals only praise McCain because they hate President Trump more.

Don't worry. It's all fake.
 
On this we agree.
Off topic: did you ever get around to listening to some of those prank calls to Duncan Construction? The old man should have quit his job and gotten into stand-up.
 
I*vaguely remember there being a lot of issues with McCain and the families of Vietnam POWs and MIAs. I believe he worked vigilantly to stop the release of debriefings and other information regarding those issues. I’m honestly too lazy to look it up right now.

He didn’t follow a*party line so that is more than you can say for a lot of politicians but he’s certainly getting a lot of praise from the left that he wasn’t getting in 2007.
